Skull shape is less genetically determined than you think. Narrow faces are strongly associated with higher glucocorticoids levels in the prenatal period of life. These high glucocorticoid levels also deplete DHEA levels, steroid hormone crucial for facial development. We know that people using exogenous DHEA report their wisdom teeth rotating into position after using the compound for long enough.
